trastuzumab-pkrb combined with modified folfox-6 in biliary tract cancer patients progressed on first line therapy

Conditions: HER2 Positive Advanced/Metastatic/Nonresectable Biliary Tract Cancer

Summary: trastuzumab is approved for the treatment of her2-positive breast cancer and gastric cancer. the recent study showed that her2 overexpression or amplification is noted about 5-15% of total biliary tract cancer patients and have shown efficacy in small basket trials. the aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in the combination of mfolfox for gemcitabine+cisplatin refractory biliary tract cancer patients.

this phase ii study is designed to see whether trastuzumab-pkrb+folfox is active as 2nd or 3rd line treatment for her2-positive biliary tract cancer patients.
